I got this directly from the wow blog before it hit Mmo Champ. Below is the Hotfixes for Dec 14th
Professions
* The respawn rates for all Horde and Alliance Cooking daily quest objectives in Orgrimmar and Stormwind have been increased.
* The Alchemy mount Vial of the Sands is no longer Bind-on-Pickup.
* Corpses which have already been skinned should no longer sometimes remain, making players think they can still be skinned -- players who are then left saddened by false hopes.
* Players are no longer able to apply the Eternal Belt Buckle on belts higher than item level 300.
* The droprate on the Precious Locket from Royal Monkfish in Stormwind waters for the Fishing daily quest "Big Gulp" has been increased.
* Ethereal Ink sold by vendors was too expensive and now trades at a 1:1 ratio with Blackfallow Ink.
* Obsidium Ore nodes now spawn more frequently in Deepholm.
* Pristine Hides were too common and now have less of a chance to drop.
* The gem cuts Timeless Nightstone, Jagged Jasper, and Solid Zephyrite can no longer create perfect versions of the cut.
Items
* Amulet of Dull Dreaming and Acorn of the Daughter Tree had duplicate stats. That's no fun for anyone! Amulet of Dull Dreaming has a critical strike rating of 112 and a haste rating of 112. Acorn of the Daughter Tree has a mastery rating of 116 and a haste rating of 107.
* Captured Lightning from The Vortex Pinnacle now correctly has Spirit instead of hit rating. The item tooltip may not properly update to reflect this change, but the appropriate stats should be applied to a character when the item is equipped.
* Lifegiving Seeds can no longer be used in Battlegrounds.
* Shroud of the Dead, purchased from the Ramkahen Quartermasters in Uldum, is no longer Bind-on-Equip.

YES! THEY FIXED THE CORPSE BUG!
Why does this excite me? During my Krush hunt, I killed Loque because no hunter wanted it and I figured might as well. Skinned it...and it didn't despawn. Loque sat there a good half hour, dead, during my circling...taunting me and making me feel guilty and miserable.
...Stupid Loque.
And oh, right. Dragon. Cooool.

Yah pretty much. You would have to rob a bank to afford to have it made however with the 1 day SHARED cool down on True Gold.

That's going to cost you a crapload of crap- someone mentioned 25k+ for mats alone.
* Players are no longer able to apply the Eternal Belt Buckle on belts higher than item level 300.
What's the point of this? Or is there another BS belt buckle? Cause if not, what is the point of nerfing it?

GUH. And I STILL can't afford the Chopper of Wrath, let alone the uber dragon mount of awesome.

There is a new BS belt buckle but it cost about 1k in the AH. The last time I checked True gold alone cost 1800g in the AH EACH.
Reagents:
Pyrium-Laced Crystalline Vial, Sands of Time (8), Truegold (12), Flask of the Winds (8), Flask of Titanic Strength (8), Deepstone Oil (8)
Based on current AH prices on my server the mount would cost about 53k gold to make. The Sands of time are Vendor only and cost 3k EACH.
* Pyrium-Laced Crystalline Vial: 5,000 Gold (Vendor only)
* Sands of Time: 24,000 (Vendor only)
* Flask of Wind: 1,800 Gold
* Flask of Titanic Strength: 528 Gold
* Deepstone Oil: 22 Gold
* True Gold: 21,600 gold

Mmm, that's some good news! Now I won't have to abandon my main's Tailoring in order to get this on her. ^^
As for the gold... It seems gold is insanely easy to come by now.

I'm done with the mats tonight, (getting the last two pieces of truegold done) but finding the pattern is appearing to be difficult.
I've already crafted two canopic jars so far, but no pattern. Starting to believe I'm never going to find it.
I don't think the mount is going to be as common as the chopper, and Alchemists WILL charge you for at least thousand or two gold to craft it, because the pattern is such a pain to acquire.

Even if the mats price goes down its still going to be in the 35-40k range minimally I would imagine. Its 29k even JUST for the 8 Sands of Time and the Crystalline Vial. PLUS 12 Truegold and other flasks, I would say its going to be expensive for quite a while.
I'll settle for saving up for my chopper.... But then again I don't really know the purpose of land mounts anymore

You can always only use land mounts in bgs.
Wintergrasp at least let you fly between battles, though. Tol Barad does not.

WG didn't let you fly in the beginning either, but then they changed that.

Wintergrasp would also flag you for Pvp and Tol Barad does not unless you join the battle.
